There is a small chance that Rieger Tuning or perhaps Irmscher in
Germany could have been done something, but I doubt it.
The calibras are uncommon in Europe (apart from Germany) and I've only
seen 3 or 4 of'em, and one was "home-made" in Sweden.

I think there are far too few convertible models from manufacturers. You
have absolutely right.
Peugeot must have thought the same, cause their Peugeot 206 CC is a
Peugeot 206 GTI, but convertible. Check it out...
